Enjoy a spot of pampering in Surrey

Peter Hinchcliffe, co-owner of Barnett Hill, said: "The moment I first saw Barnett Hill, I knew it had huge potential to become an award-winning, iconic hotel.

"Since we added Barnett Hill to the Alexander Hotels collection, we have seen it raise the bar in Surrey for exquisite service and food, which ultimately led Barnett Hill to being awarded two AA Rosettes when our fantastic head chef, Lee Young, joined the team."

The grand mansion, which dates back to 1905 and boasts breathtaking views of the Surrey Hills , now consists of 56 luxurious bedrooms having converted a number of its old conference suites.

Renovations to the public areas included refurbishing the library with designer wallpaper and renaming the restaurant to The Oak Room Restaurant; adding new chairs, tables and al fresco dining furniture to the outside terrace.

The hotel also expanded its bedroom offering into The Courtyard; a self-contained external building with completely renovated luxurious bedrooms and feature bathrooms.

Mr Hinchcliffe added: "Barnett Hill has long been known as a landmark location for conferences and meetings.

"All the while, our wedding offering has gone somewhat under the radar, and this is what we wanted to change with the renovation.

"We’ve transformed some of the conference rooms into elegant bedroom suites and have shifted Barnett Hill back into a luxury wedding and romantic getaways venue – something that’s well suited to the grandeur of its exterior."
